Allen-Bradley connector

Connect FairCom Edge to Allen-Bradley devices using EtherNet/IP and PCCC over DF1 protocols

Abstract

The FairCom Allen-Bradley ("ab") connector service allows reading data from the most common Allen-Bradley PLCs, such as ControlLogix and CompactLogix, using a variety of Allen-Bradley supported communication protocols.

This connector currently supports the EtherNet/IP and PCCC over DF1 protocols. The EtherNet/IP protocol runs over TCP/IP networks. The PCCC command protocol runs over the DF1 serial protocol.
